Absolutely. The cartilage or "Meniscus" in the knee covers the three main bones it (the knee) is comprised of and is very important to it's healthy/painfree movement, stability of the joint and reduction of internal bone damage.

Will massage help with osteoarthritis?

Osteoarthritis indicates damage to the cartilage in that knee. while message may feel good and give some relief it will not do anything to repair the cartilage that is at the root of the problem. Answer 2: Unfortunately osteoarthritis has to do with the knee, bone and cartilage loss. Massage can only affect the muscles and surrounding tissue. It may help to massage this area if there is swelling and inflammation but that will not change the loss of cartilage in the knee. Severe osteoarthritis and loss of cartilage, bone on bone, is where doctors usually consider knee replacement surgery.
